Marsala

Well, I had a hell of commute this morning because of the snow. I woke up to a nice powdery winter wonderland then it turned into a ugly grey slippery roads to a hell. The other day, I was fancied by the first snow of this winter but now I am quite bittersweet about it. Hope your day was ok. Be safe everyone. xoxo

Ok, now for the set, I joined that fest of "Marsala", the pantone color of the year 2015 thing. I didn't even know what Marsala color was other than the food chicken marsala. Sorry about my intelligence. So at first, i thought it was kind of yellow, but actually it originates from a wine produced in Marsala region in Sicily. So it is a wine - red wine color. I would say Burgundy can fake to be a Marsala. I guess you can paint yourself all with Marsala but I would rather go with accentuation than main theme for now, just to start off, as the color itself is quite intense and rich, such as using accessories. Red lips and nails go well with Marsala to prettify it. What do you think?

Elizabeth and James's black silk and wool-blend sateen Anderson trousers exemplify the label's pure, minimalist aesthetic. They're cut with a high rise and cropped cocoon legs, and are defined at the waist by a quilted-satin tie. Style them with sleek knitwear and embellished flats to transition seamlessly from day to night.

In nautical blue and ivory stripes, Max Maras Laude coat sings of spring. It's crafted in double-faced wool and angora-blend, so makes the perfect transitional layer, and has a relaxed fit that cinches at the waist. Gold-tone anchor-engraved buttons detail the shoulders. Wear it with the brands Vadier top for a runway-inspired look.
